Pneumatic mud stamp

Abstract

There is a pneumatic mud stamp including an applicator, a tube-like member, a stopper, a retraction mechanism, ad a pneumatic control. The applicator is configured to apply mud in a pattern and includes a boot and a faceplate with a slot. The tube-like member is coupled to the applicator and includes a first chamber configured to hold mud, a second chamber configured to hold pressurized air, and a decoupling mechanism configured to open the tube-like member for insertion of mud therein. The stopper is slidably disposed within the tube-like member between the first and second chambers. The stopper provides a fluid tight seal therebetween. The retraction mechanism is configured to facilitate moving the stopper away from the applicator. The pneumatic control is configured to selectably dispose pressurized air into the second chamber.

1. A pneumatic mud stamp, comprising:
 an applicator configured to apply mud in a pattern, including;
 a boot; 
 a faceplate with slots, coupled to the boot; and 
 a plurality of louvers internally disposed in the boot forming a channel therebetween; 
 
 a tube-like member coupled to the applicator and including:
 a first chamber configured to hold mud; and 
 a second chamber configured to hold pressurized air; 
 
 a stopper slidably disposed within the tube-like member between the first and second chambers, the stopper providing a fluid tight seal therebetween; and 
 a pneumatic control configured to selectably dispose pressurized air into the second chamber. 
 
   
   
     2. The pneumatic mud stamp of  claim 1 , further comprising a retracting mechanism coupled to the stopper and configured to facilitate moving the stopper away from the applicator. 
   
   
     3. The pneumatic mud stamp of  claim 1 , wherein the tube-like member further comprises a decoupling mechanism configured to open the tube-like member. 
   
   
     4. A pneumatic mud stamp, consisting essentially of:
 an applicator including;
 a boot; 
 a faceplate with slots coupled to the boot; and 
 a plurality of louvers internally disposed in the boot forming a channel therebetween, the louvers configured to apply the flow of mud in a pattern out of the applicator; 
 
 a tube-like member coupled to the applicator and including:
 a first chamber configured to hold mud; and 
 a second chamber configured to hold pressurized air, 
 
 a stopper slidably disposed within the tube-like member between the first and second chambers, the stopper providing a fluid tight seal therebetween; and 
 a pneumatic control configured to selectably dispose pressurized air into the second chamber. 
 
   
   
     5. The pneumatic mud stamp of  claim 4 , wherein the stopper comprises rubber. 
   
   
     6. The pneumatic mud stamp of  claim 4 , wherein the boot comprises a neoprene boot. 
   
   
     7. A pneumatic mud stamp, consisting of:
 an applicator configured to apply mud in a pattern and including:
 a boot; 
 a faceplate with a slot; and 
 a plurality of louvers internally disposed in the boot, forming a channel therebetween; 
 
 a tube-like member coupled to the applicator and including:
 a first chamber configured to hold mud; 
 a second chamber configured to hold pressurized air; and 
 a decoupling mechanism configured to open the tube-like member for insertion of mud therein; 
 
 a stopper slidably disposed within the tube-like member between the first and second chambers, the stopper providing a fluid tight seal therebetween; 
 a refraction mechanism configured to facilitate moving the stopper away from the applicator, and 
 a pneumatic control configured to selectably dispose pressurized air into the second chamber. 
 
   
   
     8. The pneumatic mud stamp of  claim 1 , wherein the faceplate is removably coupled to the boot. 
   
   
     9. The pneumatic mud stamp of  claim 7 , wherein in the faceplate is removably coupled to the boot. 
   
   
     10. The pneumatic mud stamp of  claim 4 , wherein the faceplate is removably coupled to the boot.
